DERRY - The Miss New Hampshire Scholarship Program announces the 2025 Miss New Hampshire and Miss New Hampshire's Teen competitions to occur April 30 - May 3, at Pinkerton Academy's Stockbridge Theatre in Derry.

Each year, the Miss New Hampshire Scholarship Program awards over $80,000 in cash scholarships to young women who exemplify "Style, Service, Scholarship and Success", which represent the "four points" of the Miss America crown.

"The Miss New Hampshire and Miss New Hampshire's Teen competitions showcase exceptional women from across New Hampshire each year," said David Appleby, President and Co-Executive Director of the Miss New Hampshire Scholarship Program. "These young women are smart, talented, and they provide inspiring volunteer service to their communities. The program not only provides scholarship dollars to be used towards their education, but it provides opportunities for them to develop valuable life-long skills to enable their success as future women leaders of America."

This year's competition will include contestants who have earned local titles from across the state of New Hampshire, including 24 young women ages 18 - 27 competing for the title of Miss New Hampshire and 24 young women ages 14 - 18 competing for the title of Miss New Hampshire's Teen. The winners will go on to compete at the national Miss America and Miss America's Teen competitions in September.

Following personal interviews and preliminary night competitions showcasing talent, fitness, and eveningwear, two exceptional young women will be crowned during the final shows on May 2nd (Miss New Hampshire's Teen) and May 3rd (Miss New Hampshire). The new Miss New Hampshire and Miss New Hampshire's Teen will receive $15,000 and $5,000 tuition scholarships, respectively, and the chance to travel across New Hampshire as brand ambassadors and advocates for important community service initiatives.

Tickets for the event can be purchased online. Granite Staters can vote online (Miss voting | Teen voting) to help their favorite contestant secure their spot in the top 11 and advance to the final competition!
